Not so long ago

We both felt love become a word

No more than that

With sex that felt like wings without a bird

The only thing that we both love

Is in the cradle that we rock

Six hands, six feet, but just one beat

The ticking of the clock



I always heard I could get hurt

(I knew that from the start)

Break my face, my back, my arms, my neck, but please don't break my heart



Solid wood will rot if you don't keep it from the rain

We were surprised when we found out

That love feels just like pain
